''Breakdowns'' is a collected volume of underground comic strips by American cartoonist Art Spiegelman. The book is made up of strips dating to before Spiegelman started planning his graphic novel ''Maus'', but includes the strip "Maus" which presaged the graphic novel, and "Prisoner on the Hell Planet" which is reproduced in ''Maus''. The original edition is subtitled ''From Maus to Now''; the expanded 2008 edition is subtitled ''Portrait of the Artist as a Young %@& *!''. ==Overview==
The original 1977 edition was made up of short, experimental strips, some of which were autobiographical, made between 1972 and 1977. At that stage in his career, Spiegelman was more interested in the formal elements of the comics medium than in its content or storytelling aspects. He experimented with and explored the relation of panels to each other on the page, pictorial manipulation, and how far one could take a story formally before it became incoherent. He parodied and paid homage to his cartoon heroes, notably Chester Gould's ''Dick Tracy'', ''Rex Morgan, M.D.'', and Winsor McCay's ''Dream of the Rarebit Fiend''. The cover depicts Spiegelman drinking a bottle of India ink over repeated variants of the same image. The title is written in shaky block letters, implying both visual and psychological breakdowns.
